I'm a recent graduate with a degree in finance and I've accepted a position with a regional CRE Developer. My position is fantastic and really gives me a broad spectrum of development. I'm supporting from the front end of the acquisition of land all the way through the back end and up until the sale. I'll be getting a taste of the accounting, financing, property management, and basically anything else you can imagine. It's really an all inclusive role that doesn't pigeon-hole me just into Asset Management or just into accounting.
With that being said, I'm looking to see if you guys think there is any further education I should look into before getting my grad degree. Obviously I want the experience before going the MBA/Masters route but before then it would be great to get a certification that could help me.
In about two years I'll be shifting from this blended role (or rotation-like role) and into a full-time asset management role. Coming right out of college it's great to hear from all of your experiences and get career advice so I appreciate any feedback.
